The Philadelphia Flyers dedicated Tuesday night's 4-1 win over the Anaheim Ducks to teammate Oskar Lindblom, who's been diagnosed with cancer. The game was the Flyers' first at home since 23-year-old Lindblom was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, a cancer that grows in the bones or in the soft tissue around them. He's now out for the season.T

The Flyers left "I Fight For Oskar" signs on every seat that fans held up during a tribute video, and players from both teams tapped their sticks as fans stood and applauded the Swedish player. Lindblom had visited with his teammates at the arena earlier in the day.
